I bought the dust shroud for the Delta Cruzer from Shop Nation and the improvement is night and day. I dreaded having to use any miter saw just due to the dust explosion they always make, but the shroud easily takes care of 95% of the dust. Main thing is don't plunge directly into the wood. Run the blade out and push it into the wood if it is narrow enough. That kicks most of the dust right into the chute.

I built a small miter station about the size of yours 2-3 years ago, but later I added a box with my shop vac in the cabinet directly beneath the saw and put a 6” scoop in the base of the station behind my saw. What a world of difference. The dust just flies in the box and gets sucked down into the vac. Not a lick of dust outside the box. I have the zero clearance tape, but can’t do the sled, or too lazy to do the sled as I’d have to rework my station to lower my saw to allow for the additional hight of the sled, but I installed a wooden backer plate against the saw fence and with the zero clearance tape, it works the same as your sled.

Great tips Matt! A while ago I bought the zero clearance tape at your recommendation, and I’m definitely going to suck it up and buy the $10 million stick now… I really like the zero clearance sled too! One upgrade you didn’t mention was a laser or a shadow line… I bought a inexpensive laser that replaces the arbor nut of my miter saw from Amazon and that works pretty well! And Drew from Fisher’s Shop added a shadow line to his saw that seems stinking sweet! I hope you and Amy are doing well!

Another good upgrade I did on my Dewalt Slider was adding the laser beam module that shows you where the blade will cut. It was easy to install and I got the instructions and kit from someone here on KZfaq.
@tywarren4704 9 күн бұрын
The 780 comes from Dewalt with the built-in LED shadow light that casts an exact shadow line of where the blade will cut. I previously had a 779 with the laser LED & agree that they're a great upgrade if you don't have a saw that is already equipped with one. I think the reason he didn't think to mention it as an upgrade is because he has the 780.

I note you shimmed your saw. You can make the recess for your saw deeper, then lay a piece of plywood on it. With four bolts, nuts and washers, you can drill through the bottom board, mount the bolts with T nuts, then adjust the board you laid on it up or down to accommodate dimensions of different miters. Drill holes part way into the upper board, for the bolt tops to go in to, to hold it in place. I came up with this when I was trying to come up with a way to move a mantle clock around and still have it perfectly level, which was critical to whether or not it worked.

Excellent suggestions, Matt. I have a DeWalt 774 mitre saw which came with a 216mm (8.5 inch) blade. Can you recommend a CMT blade for that? Being a smaller diameter it may have to have less teeth than your 12 inch recommendation but not sure.

Another addition is the Fastcap 10 Million Dollar Stick. Cutting a small piece of wood on a miter saw can be dangerous when placing your fingers close to the blade to shave off a little. The hold down stick allows you to firmly hold the piece and keep your fingers safely away. I've used mine a bunch of times. Last used to cut filler pieces to door hinge mortises when I turned a swing door slab into a barn door. I cut small shavings off of my blanks get them to fit perfectly. Not every mortise was the same.

Direct worm drive instead of belt driven, I should also mention for old renovation guys like myself the 18 lbs they shaved off of the saw is a blessing 😂

I have a Kobalt miter saw and the back plate (fence) is bellied towards the back, which is causing some kickback and of course cuts that are not square. If I run a straight edge across it, there is almost 3/16 of an inch space in the middle. I can't find parts for it and need some suggestions as how to modify this for the reasons above.
@JimE6243 9 ай бұрын
A zero clearance fence does a good job of minimizing tear out on my Kapex but, it raise havoc with the dust collection because the fence blocks or collapses the chute unless I keep it real low and then of course the tear out starts again. JimE

Tip for people like me that only have have a cheap Mitre saw. Upgrade the blade to minimum 60 tooth. Slow down the speed of your cross cuts, you'll get much less tear out or use a piece of sacrificial board underneath. Even a couple strips of painters tape will help for zero clearance (for a few cuts)

Great video as always. I purchased that zero clearance material but then became concerned that by raising the cutting area of the saw's bed slightly higher than its overall height and thereby introducing a slight angle to the miter. I use my miter saw for making picture so those angles really matter. What do you think?
@731Woodworks 9 ай бұрын
I haven't noticed it making a difference, but I'm not making frames. But, my DeWALT throat plate is slightly lower than the bed of the saw too.
@stevehopkins5907 9 ай бұрын
I was concerned about that too, but found that a business card is the same thickness as the zero clearance tape. When I’m really concerned about the accuracy of the cut I slip one under the material being cut. If I continue using it I may just put them on there with double-sided tape.

#2 - adding tape for "zero clearance" you also need to add tape to the in and out feed otherwise the vertical cut won't be 90 degrees to the board
@ndo342 6 ай бұрын
Maybe, maybe not. I have an older Makita saw which has adjustable pieces on each side of the blade, so you can move them as close to the blade as you dare. But before I saw this video with the tape idea, I made myself some MDF zero-clearance inserts to replace the Makita ones. While doing this I noticed that the Makita pieces actually sat a little below the level of the rest of the "table". I thought that was weird, but now that I know about this tape, I think that little space would make the tape work out very nicely. And much faster to apply than how long it took me to make up some inserts.

You don't have to build an entire sled. Many of us have been running electric miters for decades, so came across the problem with lack of support for small parts over and over again. With the zero clearance plate problem solved, all you need is Masonite backing attached directly to the stock fence. This not only solves the problem of lack of support for small pieces, it reduces how much material you have to use. If you use a bit thicker material. you can even inset mounting bolts in horizontal slots and relief cuts so the fences can slide left or right, allowing you to use the same back for 0-45 right or left.
